Speedy deletion nomination of Novus Dae


A tag has been placed on Novus Dae requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Inks.LWC (talk) 19:21, 13 October 2011 (UTC)

Deletion
It's up for deletion because it simply doesn't show that the band is notable enough. See WP:BAND. Also see WP:RS, because your references (apart possibly from one) are either not independent or not reliable (or both). The mevio one may be OK, but it's nothing more than a mention. You need coverage, not mentions. The band's site, blogspot, Amazon and Youtube are not reliable independent reliable sources. Peridon (talk) 19:54, 13 October 2011 (UTC)

 * I see no substantial improvement over the last version. That they've released another self-published article, and created more twitter/blog posts, does not change the underlying problem: as far as you have shown, no independent, reliable sources have discussed the band. This is not saying anything bad about the band at all--it's just saying that they don't meet Wikipedia's criterion for inclusion.
 * Assuming the article is deleted, please do not recreate it. If you think that, in the future, they might have become notable, I recommend bringing the references to someone and asking first. I would be happy to review them if you like. Alternatively, you can use our Articles for Creation process which involves another user evaluating your article first, to determine if it can be moved into mainspace.
